A short entry explaining the thought process behind the switch in DV2 away from sequences over to hash keys. Also describes some of the issues if Natural or Business keys are selected instead of hashes as PRIMARY KEYS in the Data Vault Model.

In this entry I discuss how and why I arrived at the DV standards. It seems there is a push out there to modify the standards, and I want people to understand what they should go through before proposing changes to the model and methodology.
